In what format will I receive my BMC Beverage Company Database?

What are the rules regarding use of the data for mailings? Can I use it more than once?

You can use the data as often as you like! The only restrictions are that you may not share or resell the data, or use it to create a product that competes with Beverage Marketing Corporation (for example, you cannot use the data as the basis for producing a database or directory for resale.)

How often is the BMC Beverage Company Database updated?

The BMC Beverage Company Database is updated literally all the time on an ongoing basis. We are constantly adding new beverage companies, brands, personnel and more to it along with updating existing listings to keep them as accurate as possible.

Will I be able to sort and filter the data that I receive to create custom reports or targeted mailings?

Yes. You are receiving an actual database file which you can manipulate any way you see fit to extract the data you need. You can sort and filter using a wide range of criteria including location, employee size, sales volume range, brands carried, etc. You can also add to the database as you use it, to create a customized, "real time" record for your business.

What information is contained in a company profile?

Information varies by company type. However, all company profile records contain:

Company Name

Address

Key People

Titles

Phone/Fax

Brands
